Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 2026

1. Overview

1099Calc is a static, browser-based estimation tool. It is designed so your tax inputs (annual income, filing status, mileage) never leave your device. This Privacy Policy explains what limited data is and is not collected, and how we handle it.

2. Information We Collect

We do not collect, store, or transmit any personal information you enter into the calculator — including your income figure, filing status, or mileage totals. All calculations run locally in your browser.

The only thing stored on your device is your theme preference (light/dark mode), saved via your browser's localStorage. This never leaves your browser and is used solely to remember your display preference.

3. No Accounts, No Cookies, No Tracking

  • • No account or registration is required, ever
  • • We do not use cookies for tracking or advertising
  • • We do not run analytics scripts that phone home with your inputs
  • • We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information — we don't have any

4. Third-Party Resources

Pages load fonts from Google Fonts (fonts.gstatic.com). Google's servers will see standard request metadata (such as your IP address and user agent) when your browser fetches those font files. We do not control Google's logging practices. No other third-party scripts are embedded in the pages.

5. Children's Privacy

1099Calc is intended for working adults managing US tax obligations and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children.

6. Changes to This Policy

If we change how the site works (for example, by adding a feature that stores data), we will update this page with a new revision date. Continued use of the site after changes indicates acceptance of the updated policy.
